RELAPSE

BUGGER!!!!!

17 January 2014
Well after a pleasant day’s sail from Obi Island we started the engine to charge the batteries. It ran for a few minutes and died. No big deal blocked filter right? Wrong!!!!
I went to change the filter and there was oil and water coming out of the breather so it obviously needed a bit more than just a new filter! Anyway we sailed all night only to be becalmed in the morning. Veedon Fleece were shadowing us like a mother hen and they threw us a rope and proceeded to tow us for the next 24 hours to the resort at misool island
